COMMENTS
| Schlaefli symbol for this polyhedron: {5,3}
A093485 = first differences; A124388 = second differences; third differences = 27. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Oct 30 2006
One of the 5 Platonic polyhedral (tetrahedral, cube, octahedral, dodecahedral and icosahedral) numbers (cf. A053012). [From Daniel Forgues (squid(AT)zensearch.com), May 14 2010]

FORMULA
| G.f.: x(1+16x+10x^2)/(1-x)^4. a(n) = A000292(3n-3) = A054776(n)/6 = n*A060544(n).
a(n) = C(n+2,3) + 16 C(n+1,3) + 10 C(n,3)
